Which is lighter, Absen PL2.9W Plus V2 or INFiLED ORAR2.9mk2?

INFiLED ORAR2.9mk2 is the lighter rig: 27 kg/m² against 32 kg/m². Across this wall that is 72 kg of difference — 1,280 kg versus 1,352 kg, which moves point loads and can change the hoist call.

Which draws more power?

Power is close: 720 W/m² for Absen PL2.9W Plus V2 against 720 W/m² for INFiLED ORAR2.9mk2 at full white, giving 9 and 10 circuits respectively for this wall.

Which resolves finer?

Both resolve to about the same density — 112,896 and 112,896 pixels per square metre — so pick on weight, power or what your shop already owns rather than on image detail.

Whole cabinets rarely hit an identical size, so each wall is the closest build to a real video format (16:9 or 16:10) near 8 m wide for that tile — 8.00 × 4.50 m and 8.00 × 5.00 m respectively.

What the numbers say

Both resolve to about the same density — 112,896 and 112,896 pixels per square metre — so pick on weight, power or what your shop already owns rather than on image detail.
INFiLED ORAR2.9mk2 is the lighter rig: 27 kg/m² against 32 kg/m². Across this wall that is 72 kg of difference — 1,280 kg versus 1,352 kg, which moves point loads and can change the hoist call.
Power is close: 720 W/m² for Absen PL2.9W Plus V2 against 720 W/m² for INFiLED ORAR2.9mk2 at full white, giving 9 and 10 circuits respectively for this wall.
Data is lighter on Absen PL2.9W Plus V2: 8 runs against 16, at 18 and 9 panels per port respectively (60 Hz, 8-bit, ports loaded to 80%). Fewer runs means fewer home runs to pull and fewer processor ports to find.
Different cabinet formats: 500 × 500 mm against 500 × 1000 mm, so 144 tiles versus 80 for the same wall. Fewer, larger cabinets build faster; smaller ones give finer control over wall dimensions and are easier to handle alone.
Estimated truck space: 4.6 m for INFiLED ORAR2.9mk2 against 5.8 m for the other, including spares, cases and cabling.
